Grilling some hamburger steaks right now and thought about the fact that I rarely clean my grill. I usually just burn off what's on there before putting meat on it. Just curious how often you guys clean yours.

Every time right after I use it while the steaks set up. I’m not going to be here forever to walk you through these basic things son

I don't understand. You're grilling hamburgers? Or steaks? Or both?

Usually only once then I throw it away and go buy another one. I have a Weber now and thought I would take better care of it but I haven’t cleaned it in two years.

Before and after I cook - every time. I also oil the grates after it is preheated before putting food on. Keeps it scrupulously clean, twice a year I do a big clean - easy off on the grates and flame tamers, make sure the burner surfaces are clean, etc.

About three fifty approximately as a general estimate ballpark guess.

I usually burn all of the liquids off right after I cook on it. Also heat it up good before cooking to get anything that has sprouted up since the last use.

I brush the top grate when I throw it back on over my hot coals. That's all of the attention it gets.

Never. I'll brush and oil before cooking while it is heating up.

I usually let the food debris burn off and then clean each time. Every once in a while I'll pressure wash the grill grate to really get it back to bare metal...works great....

What is this "clean your grill" stuff?

I have a gas grill.

When I'm done grilling, I leave the heat on with the top closed for another 10-15 min

Then open it up, scrape the grill with my brush.

The end.

Next time I use it, after the grill is done heating up, I scrape it again if necessary before I start.

There is a little trap at the bottom, when it's full, I empty it.

The secrets of grill nights past influence the tastes of grill nights future.

I don't know what ya'll call it in Louisiana but here in West Alabama when you cook a big ground beef patty that's too big for a bun its a hamburger steak.
